Am intalnit in titlul unui articol expresia Battle of narratives. Prima fraza a articolului este: TWO narratives, closely related, have emerged as favored explanations of the continuing violence in Iraq. One blames it on terrorists bent on exacerbating sectarian tensions; the other, on those supposed age-old religious hatreds, now exacerbated, and impossible to mitigate by the American presence.
Care ar fi o posibila traducere a expresiei? Am tot cautat in romana diverse variante si nu am gasit nimic concludent. Va multumesc!
